| Monomer liquid and polymer powder products are not usually applied: | on the lunula only. |
| Which of the following is not recommended for use on nails? | Methyl methacrylate |
| The chemical reaction that creates polymers includes all but which one of the following? | Preservation |
| During the production of polymer powder, the powder forms into tiny ____ beads of slightly varying sizes. | round |
| Polymer powders are usually blended with ___________ to create a wide range of shades from white to jet black. | pigments and colorants |
| A special additive designed to speed up chemical reactions is: | a catalyst. |
| An initiator is found in: | the polymer powder. |
| Which of the following is a common initiator? | Benzoyl peroxide |
| To create a dry bead, you combine: | one part monomer liquid and one part polymer powder. |
| The amount of monomer liquid and polymer powder used to create a bead is called the: | mix ratio. |
| In general, ____ beads are the ideal mix ratio for working with monomer liquids and polymer powders. | medium |
| What is the recommended method for disposing of used monomer liquid that has been removed from the original container? | Absorb it into a paper towel and enclose in a plastic bag. |
| Nail dehydrator: | removes surface moisture and tiny amounts of oil from the nail plate. |
| Nail dehydrator should be applied liberally: | to the nail plate only. |
| When applying primer, it is recommended that you: | completely cover the nail plate. |
| It is recommended that you use a ____ buffer for finish filing, refining, and buffing. | fine-grit |
| Nail forms are not commonly made of: | fiberglass |

| Primers and liquids should be stored in a covered container in a: | cool, dark area. |
| The process of filling a damaged, broken, lifted, or cracked monomer liquid and polymer powder nail enhancement with additional monomer liquid and polymer powder is called: | crack repair. |
| Compared to standard monomer liquid and polymer powder products, odorless products: | harden more slowly. |
| How is the inhibition layer removed? | By rolling or filing it away |
| The ____ is the area of the nail enhancement with the most strength. | apex |
| The area where the natural nail grows beyond the finger and becomes the free edge is known as the: | stress area. |
| Nail extension undersides will come straight out or dip depending on the client’s natural nail and: | the nail style she prefers. |
